Bringing About the Impossible

 

When You send forth Your Spirit,

they are created,

and You renew

       the face of the ground.

               

             Psalm 104. 30

(The Holy Spirit hovers over

what appears only to us

    as barren, rock-hard

    and impossible.

His Spirit infiltrates,

bringing about something

      new and unexpected

to sprout, to come forth

                  and flourish.

God has positioned us

to sow, nurture,

      and faithfully tend

this patch of ground

    and multiply here.

God brings about His fruit.

More than we can know.)

O LORD,

Renew the face of this ground.

May Your Holy Spirit

       hover and cover

this little patch of earth,

whatever it may be,

however difficult and arid,

   wherever we are today.

Change the shape

       of the landscape

       as only You can do.

May we bless others

through all we do and say,

    in how we respond,

    by how we love them,

---those we know

  and those we don't know yet.

May Your Presence

in this unlikely spot

            be compelling

   and evident.
